Lose Your Owners Manual?

Did you get one?

It’s truly amazing the different ways people value their health. In fact, it’s one of the things that make everyday practice so fascinating.

Each of us is given this amazing body. It’s self-healing. Self-regulating. And thankfully, takes care of millions of details all by itself without us having to give it any conscious thought. This “autopilot” feature of our bodies gets many of our patients into trouble. It prompts many to neglect some of the basic maintenance necessary for a long, trouble-free life.

If our bodies came with an Owners Manual, exercise, getting the proper rest, eating nutritious foods, drinking enough pure water would all be mentioned. Neglect any of these basics and your body warns you with hunger, thirst, lack of energy and other symptoms.

You might be surprised what else you’d find in your Owners Manual. Since your nervous system orchestrates everything, you’d also find mention of making sure your nervous system was vertebral subluxation-free. And that’s where we come in. That’s the primary purpose of chiropractic care.

Pain can be a compelling motivator to seek chiropractic care. However, it’s a lot like waiting until you’re starving to death to eat, or not drinking any water until your dehydrated and hallucinating!

That’s what creates the fascinating part: how to explain the ongoing benefits of regular chiropractic care, rather than waiting for obvious symptoms. If you have some ideas about how to effectively explain this idea, please let me know on your next visit, or email us using the link below.

Dr. Jeff Asks some important questions of interest to Colorado Springs residents - Chiropractor Colorado Springs Dr. Jeff Asks...

What's the difference between sick care and health care?
Sick care is largely about relieving or suppressing symptoms. Health care is about improving performance. While sick care is about how you feel, health care is about how you function. Sick care is what you do to treat an obvious problem, and health care is what you do to avoid the problem and advance your well-being.
What's your plan to deal with drug-resistant 'super germs'?
Chiropractors have always been concerned with the indiscriminate use of antibiotics, accelerating the mutation of microbes that make "wonder" drugs increasingly ineffective. My strategy? Do everything possible to bolster my immune system through proper diet, rest, exercise, clean air, pure water and an optimally functioning nervous system with regular chiropractic care.
